About the Organic Education Center

The Organic Education Center (OEC) seeks to strengthen the health of families, communities, and the environment by providing experiential learning opportunities in biologically sound urban agriculture. Through hands-on educational programs we teach people about the sources of their food and the ease and abundance of organic gardening. In collaboration with local business, farmers, students and government, the OEC works as a regional resource hub for sustainable food growing.
